Watermelon Aqua Fresca Recipe

I have been having a great time making fun recipes with watermelon. For me watermelon is the quintessential summer food. Perfect for a hot sunny day! I am really excited to share this Watermelon Aqua Fresca Recipe today. This drink is so refreshing and amazing!

I paired this Watermelon Aqua Fresca Recipe with our Watermelon Margarita so we had a non-alcoholic watermelon beverage and a great cocktail to serve at a summer barbecue.

Directions
1. Cut watermelon into chunks without the rind
2. Combine 1/3 of the watermelon and 1/3 of the water, blend until smooth
3. Strain into a pitcher or jar
4. Combine with lime juice and honey
5. Refrigerate up to 3 hours to chill
6. Serve over Ice

I have to share a funny story that happened with this recipe. I hunted all over Spokane looking for cheesecloth or the bags that you use when you make jelly to strain the seeds out and did not find any. I ended up having to Macgyver a straining system. I used coffee filters and a pasta strainer to strain the watermelon juices. It was an interesting set up but thankfully it worked.
